*DUET INTRODUCTION*
Nothing good ever arises when a fiery redhead in a pilfered gown arrives with all her possessions at her feet.
I should have sensed trouble when she brought an aura of smoke and sin into my bar, challenging me to a game.
Though she may have claimed victory over my watch, she unwittingly ignited a conflict.
As my Breitling slipped from my wrist to hers, she jubilantly declared herself the luckiest girl alive.
Yeah, fortunate to everyone but me.
The moment her muddy boots descended the stairs, sending shivers up my spine, my empire began to crumble.
My cashmere charm is losing its luster.
My genteel facade is showing cracks.
My adversaries are closing in.
Perhaps the gypsy was onto something:
The Queen of Hearts is set to drag me down to hell.
At least, amidst the flames, there’s a certain warmth.
